Introduction to JLA Vol. 8
This volume of JLA explores the challenges faced by the World's Greatest Heroes.

Superman becomes brainwashed by a fanatic cult worshipping an ancient vampiric evil. The story also delves into the emotional toll on Superman, Flash, Green Lantern, Martian Manhunter, Wonder Woman, and Batman as they confront past failures to save innocents or prevent disasters. Like first responders, the JLA members must support each other through their pain to continue their mission.
